Dining at the W Chicago Lakeshore

Wave - Several steps down from the lobby, this open-design restaurant serves a full breakfast and Mediterranean-influenced cuisine at lunch and dinner. The dress is business casual, the atmosphere is laid-back, and the decor is ultra-chic with leather seating in ivory and red. An elevated section along the wall of windows offers booth seating.

Whiskey Sky - This dark, intimate lounge takes its name from its bird''s-eye view of Chicago. Black is the prevailing fashion here, in keeping with the black-and-silver leather banquettes and black mohair club chairs. From Memorial Day to Labor Day, the city presents a fireworks show over Navy Pier on Wednesday and Saturday nights, and the bar provides an excellent vantage point.
